About Senia
Hi, I’m Senia Mae!
Doctor of Chinese Medicine and Institute of Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner
Holistic medicine has been my focus and my passion for more than 15 years. I’ve always looked at the unique patterns of each individual through the lens of Chinese medicine, but there are also patterns we can identify through the lens of Functional Medicine—patterns that are backed by biochemistry, advanced lab testing, and medical science.
With both Functional Medicine and Chinese medicine in my holistic medicine toolbox, I can choose the best tool for any given patient or any given stage of disease.
For example, Functional Medicine shines when we need to improve detoxification, find the underlying cause of inflammation, balance thyroid or stress hormones, or avoid an overly restrictive diet by testing for food sensitivities. Chinese herbal formulas are unparalleled when it comes to increasing energy, healing digestive issues, and boosting the metabolism.
I invite you to see what this unique combination of traditional Chinese medicine and Functional Medicine, or what I call Functional Chinese Medicine, can do for you!

YOUR PERSONALIZED CARE PLAN
Functional Chinese Medicine Assessment + Holistic Care Plan
We start with two sessions about a week apart. Your first appointment is a 2-hour comprehensive Functional Chinese Medicine assessment. After your first appointment your practitioner will review your case, including a lab review of any labs you provide, and write a personalized Holistic Care Plan that includes an overview of your diagnostic patterns, recommended labs to dig deeper, diet and lifestyle guidance, and initial herb and supplements to start you feeling better as quickly as possible. At your second 2-hour appointment you'll go over this personalized report with your practitioner and together you will choose a treatment package that best fits your needs.
Implementing Your Personalized Care Plan for Optimal Health
Depending on the care plan you choose, you will meet regularly with your practitioner to implement your personalized care plan and get the support and guidance you need to optimize your health. Functional Chinese Medicine sessions are typically every 2-4 weeks. Functional Acupuncture sessions are typically weekly then gradually less frequently. Each visit will assess what is working, review test results, and modify your wellness plan to keep you moving toward optimal health.
Pricing for care plan packages can be discussed at your free 20-minute consult. Functional lab testing and supplements are charged separately.
